Hello again

Howdy to all. I know it has been a while. Been very busy with my grandboys. Ryan plays football on Tues evenings, and Cody plays soccer on Mon and Wed evening. We are making trips to Galveston 3 times a week. Hey my boys are so worth it. I do love being a granny.
Harry and I are have moved to spot 76, this site is back on the bay. We have a small backyard and just more outdoor room. We are able to sit and fish and through out a crab trap. Hoping to catch enough for fish fry and crab boil. Yummy Yummy. We have some friends a couple of spaces down from us. We sat out the other night had a fire and a few drinks. Great to catch up with them. They have just sold their house and now doing the RV thing. Nick has recently retired from BP. More fun friends to play.
Well I had my foot surgery Thursday Oct. 29th all went well. I had a large bone spur removed from the top of my foot, and had him take off a bunion while I was on the table. Will need to stay off my foot for a week. Then gradually put weight on it. I did get good meds. Love being in La La land. Oops I live there, says Harry. Speaking of Harry he is taking great care of me. I so love being spoiled.
How about Greys Anatomy great show last night. I am also watching flash forward not sure about that series.
We had a great time at the Texans football game last Sunday we have one more game to attend.
This team can give a lot of thrills, as long as we win they can give me a few scares.
This Sunday I will have to watch them from my living room.
Well there is a lot going on this weekend Biker rally in Galveston, Wings over Houston the blue angels will be performing. Boo on the boardwalk, trick or treaters, and a Halloween party given by our next door neighbors. What to do? I just have to miss all because I can't walk.
Would like to give a big congratulation to our dear friends Jimmy and Connie they have celebrated 40 years of wedded bliss. A big milestone this day and time. Harry and I will also have 40 years under our belt this Dec.
Well I shall sign off but beware I shall be back.
Be safe XXXXOOOO

A big howdy to all of our camping buddys we miss yall but will see you soon.

Oct 18th

Had a great Sunday, the weather was very nice. We finally got our first cool front, dropping temp about 20 degrees. With the heat index a balmy 101, any relief was a welcome treat. We were able to turn the A C off, open the windows and enjoy the fresh north wind. Harry and I have been struggling with the heat, the pleasant weather in the northwest has truly spoiled us.
We bought us a small BBQ smoker, Harry put some baby back ribs and a chicken on Sunday. Let the meat slowly smoke for 5 to 6 hours. Now that's is Texas style BBQ. Harry has always had good meat, love gnawing on the bone. {Shame Shame on you I know what u thinking}
Lisa Pooh came into town this weekend it was her birthday. Yes my baby girl is 36 now. Don't know were the time has gone. She meet us at a local Mexican restaurant, a nice hang out for a group of friends and happy hour. Friday has always been family night for us so we went to Maureen's loft and I cooked us a seafood dinner. Maureen is a ghost and goblin fan of Halloween she has decorated her loft in the spirit of the season. She can not help her self I was in labor with her on Halloween.
My perfect grandson made a goal for his soccer team of course he was the star of the game. However I must confess I could not make that game just unable to get to Galveston.
He has another game this week and I shall be there. I was able to see Ryan football team skunk Blocker. I was very impress with TC football field the city spent over a million dollars to refurbish it, the TC Stings has a field to be proud to play on.
That old saying what goes around comes around, it is true Harry received is jury summons. He has to report the first week of Nov. I thought I would be able to get exempt because I am going to have foot surgery, well the very nice lady on the phone said we will reschedule so I shall be reporting to court Feb 22. Having 4 months to stew just makes it that much harder for those poor souls.
Well guys I need to get busy so I shall say so long.
Be safe and XXXXXOOOO

Via Bayou RV park

We are in Dickinson at the Via bayou R V park. This park is back behind Hillmans seafood and on Dickinson bayou. I do like the park we have a nice breeze and our site is concrete. Has a laundry room, wide space to enjoy the outside, no highway noise and of course a fishing and crabbing pier. Yes I am a happy camper.
We arrived in Dickinson Sept. 29th in time to see our grandson Ryan play football. He plays for Austin Middle School Indians. They played Santa Fe Indians and his team won. Ryan is playing on both the offense and defense teams. Of course we all know he is the best kid on the team. Just ask me. Cody plays soccer, his games are Wed. evenings. After the games the boys wanted to go out to dinner, so being the best Granny in the world I take them . Little do they know next week Granny will bring peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. We will have a picnic, great family time and better for Papa's budget.
I have been home less than a week when I received a jury summons. Can you believe this, I have been to 13 states the last 7 months and this state hits me with a jury summons. I really would not mind serving on a jury but it is the processing. You are herded like livestock sit and wait till your name might be called, if not then you must call the jury hot line and listen for your name if you are to report to court next the day. This can go on for 5 days. Unable to make plans
you are at the mercy of the system. I could continue to whine but who cares just get over it.
We went to dinner Thursday night I surprised Kerry she is happy I am home. We enjoyed happy hour and got caught up on silly girl stuff.
Sunday was football. We have tickets to the Texans game and what a sweet sweet victory. So worth the trip in the rain and wind. But again I need to rant and rave. What is with people, up and down, climbing over you, blocking your view standing and talking by your seat. My gosh people please tell me WHY are you there. { I am still on my meds} so you can not blame me.
Well I will say good bye for now, I will still be in touch with all. I do have lots more to talk about.
Be Safe
